Joe, I still carry my tool kit that I graduated with in 1972. It is hardly used and I have it cleaned by a shoe repairman about once a year. I have made one improvement that I love. I had a leather doctors bag made that lays on the top of my tools in the bottom of my tool case, then I lay my doctors bag on it's side on top of the tool role. The doctors bag only has my most important tools for easy in easy out jobs. When I first walk into a job I only carry the doctors bag. If I need the rest of the tools, they are in the car. It has made easy jobs a breeze and much easier on the shoulder.

Vintage 1970-80's Nothing "vintage" about it. It is no longer being made, but was a very efficient, especially for the Blind Students of The P.H.! Contrary to the cheap crap you have for tool kits, it was well made, expensive and lasted a long time. Joe Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
